Education is seen as the key to the future of the Basque language, which finds itself surrounded by a sea of Spanish and French speakers. Throughout the Basque regions of Spain, schools are required to provide a certain level of education in Basque. In France, the ikastola movement is gaining momentum and is now recognized and supported by the government. All share the same goal of producing fully fluent Basque speakers (euskaldunes), that is to say, children who can read, write and speak Basque in their everyday lives.

The Basque Country or Basque Autonomous Community was granted the status of nationality within Spain, attributed by the Spanish Constitution of 1978 to separate ethnic realities. The autonomous community is based on the Statute of Autonomy of the Basque Country, a foundational legal document providing the framework for the development of the Basque people on Spanish soil. Notwithstanding this spirit, the territory of Navarre was left out and made into a separate autonomous community. The capital is Vitoria-Gasteiz (Vitoria is the name in Spanish, Gasteiz in Basque), located in the province of Álava, and Bilbao its largest city, located in the province of Biscay.

The autonomous community of the Basque Country should not be confused with the larger Basque Country (Basque: Euskal Herria) of which it is a component part.
